No Protection
As I watched you leave
Thought you needed space from me
Just a few weeks at your place, you said
And you did so well to hide your face
Fought back the tears, felt some relief
These are the days that bring me to my knees
These are the words that shape my fears
I stand in the way of it
And can't take the weight of it
Where's the protection from love?
Thought I would give you a surprise as you opened your door
She was there, right in your eyes
My heart it hit the floor
All of my fears and a suitcase in the hall
But I'm one who let you leave
I stand in the way of it
And can't take the weight of it
Where's the protection from love?
That's not the shape of it
Not even the weight of it
There's no protection from love
These are the days that bring me to my knees
These are the words that shape my fears
I stand in the way of it
And can't take the weight of it
Where's the protection from love?
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
I know you'll miss me when you kiss me goodbye ...
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
I know you'll miss me when you kiss me goodbye ...
I stand in the way of it
And can't take the weight of it
Where's the protection from love?
That's not the shape of it
Not even the weight of it
There's no protection from love
Thought you needed space from me
Just a few weeks at your place, you said
And you did so well to hide your face
Fought back the tears, felt some relief
These are the days that bring me to my knees
These are the words that shape my fears
I stand in the way of it
And can't take the weight of it
Where's the protection from love?
Thought I would give you a surprise as you opened your door
She was there, right in your eyes
My heart it hit the floor
All of my fears and a suitcase in the hall
But I'm one who let you leave
I stand in the way of it
And can't take the weight of it
Where's the protection from love?
That's not the shape of it
Not even the weight of it
There's no protection from love
These are the days that bring me to my knees
These are the words that shape my fears
I stand in the way of it
And can't take the weight of it
Where's the protection from love?
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
I know you'll miss me when you kiss me goodbye ...
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
I know you'll miss me when you kiss me goodbye ...
I stand in the way of it
And can't take the weight of it
Where's the protection from love?
That's not the shape of it
Not even the weight of it
There's no protection from love
